VIDEO: Bryce Harper Smacks 2-Run Shot for 32nd Homer of the Year as Phillies Take Lead Over Braves
By Karl Rasmussen
The Phillies are down, but not out, in the National League Wild Card race, and a win over the Braves Wednesday night would do wonders for their cause. Well, in order to get the offense going, Bryce Harper launched a two-run shot into the seats, giving the Phils a 2-1 lead over Atlanta in the fourth.
If there's one team you can count on Bryce Harper to go deep against, it's the Braves, and he's found particularly strong success against Julio Teheran throughout his career. This was his ninth homer off the Braves' hurler, and it came at a vital time for Phillies fans.
